Restaurants are increasingly turning to technology and robotics , as automation offers potential cost savings and operational efficiencies in an industry known for razor-thin profit margins.

Although the initial investment in robotics and artificial intelligence systems is substantial, often costing hundreds of thousands of dollars per unit, restaurants are betting that these upfront costs will pay off through increased efficiency, reduced labor expenses and improved customer experiences over time.

As many establishments have struggled to find and retain workers since the Covid-19 pandemic, this emerging technology offers a potential solution to the current labor shortage challenge—allowing restaurants to maintain operations even with a smaller human workforce.

However, if this trend continues, it could greatly impact the job market for front-line, low-wage positions in the food service industry that focus on repetitive tasks, like food preparation or order delivery.

"In five years, we do expect eventually all Sweetgreen stores to be automated," said CEO Jonathan Neman at the William Blair Growth Stock Conference in June 2023.

The American, fast-casual restaurant chain that specializes in salads launched its inaugural automated eatery last year in Naperville, a suburb of Chicago, Illinois.

According to Sweetgreen's CFO Mitch Reback, implementing an Infinite Kitchen requires an additional investment of $450,000 to $500,000 per location, but it has the potential to boost restaurant margins by seven percentage points where the technology is deployed.

SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA "Dad, did you ever imagine that your formula would become so famous?" I ask the kind-eyed, 91-year-old person next to me on the patio. My dad, Frank Drake, is quiet for a moment. Perhaps he's thinking back to the November day 60 years ago when he unceremoniously drafted a formula that went on to shape humankind's hunt for extraterrestrial civilizations.

Avi Loeb: Two things. In 2017, there was an object — the first one that was identified from outside the solar system that arrived close to Earth — and it didn't look like anything we've seen before. It didn't look like a comet, it didn't behave like an asteroid. Loeb: Yes. And I thought maybe it's artificial in origin. And, in fact, I wrote a book about it, Extraterrestrial, that was published six months ago. And then a month ago, there was a report delivered to Congress saying: there are things in the sky above the U.S. whose nature is not identified.
